"A beautifully written, evocative literary page-turner about a brilliant nineteenth-century female pianist from Poland lost to history and another woman's quest to ensure she is not forgotten-with a shocking twist of a finale.
Clara Bishop hasn't touched a piano since a concert hall fire nearly took her life a decade ago, ending her career as a rising star in the world of classical music. Significantly scarred and unable to play, she has turned away from everything and everyone associated with music, especially her ruthless mentor Madame, whom Clara blames for her injuries.
Her life is upended when Madame dies, leaving Clara an unexpected inheritance: an ornate nineteenth-century metronome with a cryptic message hidden inside. Convinced this is not a gift but a puzzle Madame wants her to solve, Clara comes to suspect that the unusual bequest is the long-lost metronome of the composer Aleksander Starza-a priceless object missing since 1885, when Starza was murdered by the brilliant female pianist Constantia Pleyel.
As Clara works to uncover the metronome's haunted past and protect it-and herself-from those who wish to obtain it, she discovers that nothing about Starza and his murder are what they seem. History has remembered Constantia Pleyel as an unstable artist who killed Starza in a fit of madness. The truth could rewrite the history of music-and give Clara the second chance she has been longing for.
This moving tale is perfect for fans of Brendan Slocumb's The Violin Conspiracy."
"Camilla Winston-Brown desperately needed a breakthrough in her film career, not to lose her job a month before her thirtieth birthday. Faced with mounting debt and an overwhelming sense of despair, she purposefully crashes her car feet from Hollywood Boulevard. When she wakes up in her childhood bedroom, she finds her mother and best friend—both deceased in her reality—are alive and well. She has a loving partner, she never left her Missouri hometown for LA, and gave up filmmaking long ago. As Camilla’s magnetic pull towards a mysterious filmmaker named Millie grows, she’s forced to come to terms with what’s real, what’s not, and why she crashed her car.
“Fragments of Another Life” is a thoughtful examination of the road not taken, and if comfortable dreams are preferable to uncertain realities. "
